Estelle Fuller Hinesley

July 31, 1931 — September 25, 2024

Asheboro, NC 27203

Heaven is rejoicing as Estelle Fuller Hinesley joined her beloved Ernest in their heavenly home on September 25, 2024. 

The world was blessed when Estelle was born on July 31, 1931 to Will and Cora Fuller. She was a loving sister to her 5 siblings and married the love of her life, Ernest, on July 10, 1949 in SC. She and Ernest worked at BB Walker Shoe Company in supervisory positions and she was known for her strong work ethic and compassionate leadership to her teammates. She retired from BB Walker after 32 years of service. She was a lifelong member of Mt Shepherd Church and dedicated her life to sharing the Word of God and supporting her church through her unwavering Christian faith. She was able to attend church her last Sunday and received an amazing homecoming surrounded by the love and blessings of her church family. 

Estelle was known for her sweet disposition, sense of humor and enjoyed working with her flowers and gardens. She loved her family fiercely and supporting her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren at all of their activities-always at school events, ball fields and church services. Her home was always open and she loved and fed so many friends, families and strangers through the years. If you were lucky enough to sit at her table (“sit anywhere you want, make yourself at home just like family”), you enjoyed the most delicious meal full of love (and butter and sugar) and a soul fed like only a grandma can give. She loved everyone she met unconditionally and never met a stranger. 

In addition to her parents, Estelle was preceded in death by her husband, Ernest, sisters Lillian Westmoreland, Evelyn Earnhardt, Ola Draughn, Barbara Allred, and brother Wilbur (Buck) Fuller.

She is survived by son Steve Hinesley (Vickie) of Asheboro, daughter Lori Trent (Michael) of Asheboro, grandchildren Bradley Hinesley (Emily), Brandy Beck (Clint), Kobe Trent (Isabell), great grandchildren Kylee and Ellie Beck and Lincoln and Estelle Hinesley.

While we will miss her sweet smile, love of life and family dinners, we are blessed to have been loved by her and have comfort knowing she is celebrating with her family and friends and we will see her again. She would want everyone to enjoy a good meal (or “persimmon pudding”) with your loved ones, always see the good in people, and to know the love and grace of Jesus. Well done, good and faithful servant. 

The family will receive friends on Monday, September 30, 2024 from 6:00-8:00 pm at Pugh Funeral Home, 437 Sunset Avenue in Asheboro.  Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, October 1, 2024 at 3:00 pm at Mt. Shepherd Church, 844 Mt. Shepherd Road in Asheboro with Pastor Rick McCranie and Rev. Lee Ellis officiating.  Interment will follow at the church cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Mt Shepherd Church 844 Mt Shepherd Church, Asheboro NC 27205 or the Randolph Hospice House.
